Kate and Zoe met at nineteen when they both made the cut for the national training program in track cycling. Now at thirty-two, the women are facing their last and biggest race: the 2012 Olympics. Kate is more naturally gifted, but the demands of her life have a tendency to slow her down. Her eight-year-old daughter Sophie is fighting a recurrence of the leukemia that nearly killed her three years ago. Intense, aloof Zoe's compulsive need to win at any cost has more than once threatened her friendship with Kate - and her own sanity. Will she allow her obsession, and the advantage she has over a harried, anguished mother, to sever the long-time bond they have shared?
